Stop Unnecessary Mountain Lion Hunting

"The public believes that the mountain lion hunt is needed because of the risk of danger to small children. They are afraid that a mountain lion will wander into residential streets and attack people. However, numerous animal conservation groups say that there is no legitimate reason to ever hunt these animals. Because of their quiet and secretive nature, they hardly ever come into contact or interact with humans. These hunts are based on the fear that they will attack humans, but that is a very rare case. Instead, mountain lions are a beneficial addition to ecosystems because they are apex predators. They prey on small animals and keep a balanced population for other animals without the need for human interference.

By keeping the mountain lions, the ecosystem of Nebraska will be more natural, stronger, and controlled. Please sign this petition to tell Nebraska that a mountain lion harvest is unnecessary."
